TONI ERDMANN
Winfried doesn‘t see much of his working daughter Ines. The suddenly student-less music teacher de-cides to surprise her with a visit after the death of his old dog. It‘s an awkward move because serious career woman Ines is working on an important project as a corporate strategist in Bucharest. The geographical change doesn‘t help the two to see eye to eye any bet-ter. Practical joker Winfried loves to annoy his daughter with corny pranks. What‘s worse are his little jabs at her routine lifestyle of long meetings, hotel bars and performance reports. Father and daughter reach an im-passe, and Winfried agrees to return home to Germa-ny. Enter dazzling ‘Toni Erdmann’: Winfried‘s smooth- talking alter ego. Disguised in a tacky suit, weird wig and even weirder fake teeth, Toni barges into Ines‘ profes-sional life, claiming to be her CEO‘s life coach. Wilder and bolder than Winfried, Toni doesn‘t hold back, and Ines meets the challenge. The harder they push, the closer they become. In all the madness, Ines begins to under-stand that her eccentric father might deserve some place in her life after all.

THE BEAUTIFUL DAYS OF ARANJUEZ
A beautiful summer day. A garden. A terrace. A woman and a man under the trees, with a soft summer wind. In the distance, in the vast plain, the silhouette of Paris.
A conversation begins: questions and answers between the woman and the man. It deals with sexual experien-ces, childhood, memories, the essence of summer and the difference between men and women, it deals with feminine perspective and masculine perception.
In the background, inside the house that opens onto the terrace, on the woman and the man: the writer, in the process of imagining this dialogue and typing it down. Or is it the other way around? Might it be that those two characters, over there, tell him what he’s putting down on paper: a long, final dialogue between a man and a woman?

MARIE CURIE THE COURAGE OF KNOWLEDGE
The most turbulent five years in the life of a genius woman: between 1905, when Marie Curie comes with Pierre Curie to Stockholm to be awarded the Nobel Prize for the discovery of radioactivity, and 1911, when she receives her second Nobel Prize. A sweeping biography of the legendary Nobel Prize–winning physicist and chemist, who courted controversy with both her challenging of France’s male-dominated academic establishment and her unconventional ro-mantic life.

Marija, a young Ukrainian woman, earns her living as a hotel maid in Dortmund, but dreams of owning her own hair salon. She puts money aside each month, but when she is fired without notice, her dream seems out of reach. Without work and under financial pressure, she finds herself forced to look for other opportunities. Her body, her social relationships and her own feelings take a secondary importance to her goal.
Michael Koch’s feature film debut is the portrait of a young woman who lives on the periphery of our production and consumer-oriented society, but does not accept the ascribed role of the victim. Demanding, determined and uncompromising, she fights to live a freer, self-determined life.

The twentieth century has produced millions of re-fugees, exiles, and stateless, displaced persons. Some of them eventually settle down and grow new roots; others continue traveling, waiting, dreaming of re-turning home.
This is a first hand account of the life, thoughts and feelings of a displaced person. It‘s a painful record of one person‘s experiences in a Nazi forced labor camp; five years in displaced persons camps; and the first years as a young Lithuanian immigrant in New York City.
Jonas Mekas‘ diaries have an aching honesty, puckish humor and quiet nobility of character. The early years of this seminal avant-garde filmmaker capture a much more universal story: that of the emigrant who can never go back, and whose solitariness in the New World is emblematic of the human condition.
The sections set in New York City convey the rapture and loneliness of a young man who has just escaped the worst nightmare of the twentieth century, only to discover the lesson of what Freud called ’ordinary un-happiness‘ in the great metropolis.

A clever play between consumption and expulsion, Nina Könnemann’s wry WHAT’S NEW contrasts the bi-week ly rhythms of changing posters on a street-level public billboard in Berlin with the suggestion of less-than-proper acts taking place on the opposite side of the board.

GAZA SURF CLUB
Gaza – a strip of land with a population of 1.7 million citizens, wedged between Israel and Egypt and isola-ted from the outside world. 42 kilometers of coastline with a harbour that no longer services ships. Hardly anything gets in to Gaza and even less get’s out. The young generation is growing up with very little perspec-tive - occupied and jobless. But against this background there is a small movement.
Our protagonists are part of the surf community of Gaza City. Roundabout 40 surfboards have been brought into the country over the past decades with great effort and despite strict sanctions. It is those boards that give them an opportunity to experience a small slice of free-dom - between the coastal reminder of a depressing reality and the Israeli-controlled 3 mile marine border.

KARL MARX CITYTwenty-five years after the collapse of the German Democratic Republic (GDR), filmmaker Petra Epperlein returns to the proletarian Oz of her childhood to find the truth about her late father’s suicide and his ru mored Stasi past. Had he been an informant for the secret police? Was her childhood an elaborate fiction? As she looks for answers in the Stasi’s extensive archives, she pulls back the curtain of her own ostalgia and enters the parallel world of the security state, seeing her former life through the lens of the oppressor. Re-constructing everyday GDR life through declassified Stasi surveillance footage, the past plays like dysto pian science fiction, providing a chilling backdrop to inter-rogate the apparatus of control and the meaning of truth in a society where every action and thought was suspect.

MALI BLUES
The West African country of Mali is considered the birthplace of the blues, brought later by abducted slaves to America’s cotton fields. For centuries tradi-tional music has unified Mali’s society. Yet the music of Mali is in jeopardy. Radical Islamists introduced Sharia law in the country’s northern part, prohibiting dance and secular music, destroying instruments, and threat-ening musicians. Many musicians fear for their lives and flee from the region around the cities of Timbuktu and Kidal. But the Islamist terror has by now expanded to other parts of Mali as well. The UN war effort is being further increased; the German Bundeswehr army has been operating there, too, for the past three years. MALI BLUES tells the story of four musicians who re-fuse to accept hatred, sus picion, violence, and a radical interpretation of Islam in their country. That is, neither in Mali nor in any other place in the world.
International shooting star Fatoumata Diawara, Ngoni virtuoso and traditional griot Bassekou Kouyaté, young rap singer Master Soumy, and guitar virtuoso Ahmed Ag Kaedi, leader of the Tuareg band Amanar – they all have one thing in common: their music unites, com-forts, and heals, and it lends the people the vigor to bring about change and a mutual future in peace.

EINE VILLA MIT PINIENTHE PINE TREE VILLA
Lion and Bird walk through a prestigious Berlin resi-dential area. Rumors say, one of the villas has been uninhabited for years, but there is still light burning in the house. Curiosity drives Lion into the house, Bird follows hesitantly. Lion wants to take a further look, but Bird gets scared and leaves the house. A maid without a mask calls him out of the bush. She tries to convince him to hand the animal mask to her in order to com-mand the overall visible light creatures. Her way out of the villa, she hopes. The master of the house enslaves intruders by letting them dance to his piano music. Once they are completely exhausted, he steals their animal masks, so they cannot escape anymore: They end up as light creatures working for him forever. The maid and Bird find a way to defeat the master of the house. Bird is now a lot more confident towards Lion. But the big change in him has only just begun.
